Southside Removalists

Home Removals Across the Southside 

Moving house is one of those experiences that can either go smoothly or completely fall apart depending on who you hire. Our home removal service is built around making sure it goes smoothly. We handle everything from carefully wrapping fragile items to disassembling furniture that won’t fit through doorways, loading the truck strategically so nothing shifts in transit and reassembling everything at your new place so you’re not left staring at a pile of parts at the end of the day. 

Office and Commercial Relocations 

Downtime is expensive and a poorly planned office move can create days of disruption. Our commercial relocation service is planned around minimising that. We can work evenings or weekends so your business keeps running during the week, and we handle everything including IT equipment, filing systems and office furniture with the kind of care and organisation that keeps things running from day one in the new space. 

This is usually the first thing people want to know and we think that’s completely reasonable. Moving costs in Brisbane vary depending on a handful of straightforward factors and we’d rather be upfront about all of them than leave you guessing. 

The size of the move matters. A one bedroom unit and a five bedroom house are very different jobs and your quote will reflect that. The distance between your two properties plays a role too, as does the complexity of the move, things like stairs, restricted access, long carry distances from the front door, or lift bookings in apartment buildings. 

A one to two bedroom move typically starts from around $350 to $600. A three to four bedroom home generally falls between $700 and $1,200. Larger homes and commercial relocations are quoted individually because the variables involved are too specific for a general estimate to be useful. 

Optional extras like packing, unpacking and packing materials are added to your quote separately so you only pay for what you actually want. 

The most important thing we can tell you about our pricing is this. The number we give you upfront is the number on your invoice at the end. No fuel levies added on the day. No charges for things we didn’t discuss. No rounding up for time that wasn’t used. Just honest, transparent pricing from a team that respects your budget.

We Know the Southside Better Than Most People Who Live Here  

Our team works these streets every single day. We know which roads won’t fit a moving truck, which apartment buildings need lift bookings organised days ahead, and which council zones have strict rules about where and when you can park. That local knowledge means your move is planned properly from the beginning rather than pieced together on the day while your time and money ticks away. 

The Price We Quote Is Exactly What You Pay 

 Too many removalists advertise a low rate and then add on stair fees, fuel levies and mystery charges once the job is done. We’ve heard those stories from our own customers and we built our business to be the opposite of that. Every quote we give is based on the real details of your move and that same number is what shows up on your final invoice without any additions or surprises.  

We Are Professionals Who Take This Work Seriously  

Shift Buddies is not a group of casuals hired off a job board the night before your move. We are a consistent, experienced team that turns up prepared, communicates with you throughout the day and handles everything in your home with genuine care and attention. We take real pride in doing this job well and that pride comes through in the way we work on every single move. 

Every Job We Do Is Fully Insured  

Public liability and goods in transit insurance is included as standard on every move we complete across the Southside. You do not need to ask for it, pay extra for it or wonder whether you are covered. It is simply part of how we operate because we believe anything less than full coverage is not good enough for our customers. 

We Work Around Your Schedule, Not Ours  

Moving day almost never falls at a perfectly convenient time and we understand that better than anyone. Whether you need an early morning start, a weekend move or an after hours commercial relocation, we do everything we can to make your preferred time work because your schedule matters and we treat it that way. 

Brisbane’s Southside has all kinds of homes and each one comes with its own surprises.  

Our team has worked through every one of these situations. We don’t show up and figure it out as we go. We show up with a plan. 

Here’s what we bring to every furniture job: 

• Furniture blankets that wrap around your pieces and stop any scratches or dents during the move 
• Moving straps that keep heavy furniture secure so nothing slips or shifts in transit 
• Trolleys and stair climbers for the really big and heavy stuff that can’t just be carried by hand
• Years of real experience solving exactly the kinds of problems that come up in Southside homes
• We also take care of everything around the furniture. Be it protecting your walls, doors, making sure nothing gets bumped or scraped.
